Ah .. I am just looking at the language packs for linux distributions. Could anyone on the list explain how users install language packs on LO (I'm using the .rpm version as reference point here). It looks like they come in a ".tar.gz" file and when uncompressed a folder is created with a lot of .rpm files. There doesn't seem to be an installer that comes along with them and the user is left to use console to install. It this right? If this is the case, I can see why you (Jean-Baptiste) and I had different opinions as the installation process is different from the Win and Linux platforms. I imagine that this is also the case with the Apple platform. So, if this is the case, we would then have to a common installer where the user would identify the language pack(s) needed. It doesn't look like the language pack installers would be a good place as the language installation methods are different from one OS to the other. Does this make sense? Salut!
